EXPLORE YOUR COURSE
Uncover the ocean's hidden stories, every wreck dive offers a chance for discovery.
About the course
The PADI Wreck Diver Specialty course introduces you to the fascinating world of wreck diving while teaching the skills and techniques needed to explore wrecks safely and responsibly.
During the course, you’ll learn how to survey and navigate wrecks, identify potential hazards, use lines and reels, and practise techniques for responsible wreck exploration while protecting both yourself and the underwater environment.
Phuket does have a couple of basic wreck diving opportunities; however, it is not primarily known as a wreck diving destination, and our regular day-trip schedules do not always include suitable wreck sites. For this reason, the PADI Wreck Diver Specialty has limited availability and needs to be arranged around suitable boat schedules, dive sites and diving conditions.
If wreck diving is one of your goals while visiting Phuket, we recommend contacting the Aussie Divers Phuket team in advance so we can check upcoming schedules and discuss the best options for completing your PADI Wreck Diver Specialty.

Diving Wrecks in Phuket
The PADI Wreck Diver course teaches you how to navigate around a wreck safely and practice responsible wreck diving to ensure both your safety and your buddy’s.

Your Next Adventure
Many shipwrecks are often found in deeper water. That’s why the PADI Wreck Diver course is a natural companion to the PADI Deep Diver course. Sometimes you can take these two specialties concurrently.
Other training to consider is the PADI Enriched Air Diver course on your way to PADI Master Scuba Diver.
